Computation and Uses of Gradient Winds
The viewpoint is taken that in large port>ions of the atmospherc, wind spcclds (V,,), divergence (D,?), and vor-ticity (r,?) obtained under the gradient wind assnmptiorl are considerably morc accurate representations of true conditions than those one obtains from the geostrophic assumption. Equations are derived for computing V,,, D,,, and rgl. The equation for the vorticity of gradicnt' winds ...
متن کاملStronger winds over a large lake in response to weakening air-to-lake temperature gradient
The impacts of climate change on the world’s large lakes are a cause for concern1–4. For example, over the past decades, mean surface water temperatures in Lake Superior, North America, have warmed faster than air temperature during the thermally stratified summer season, because decreasing ice cover has led to increased heat input2,5. However, the effects of this change on large lakes have not...
متن کاملSoil Transport by Winds on Mars
The eolian transport of surface material on the planet Mars is estimated from results of low-pressure wind tunnel testing and theoretical considerations. A semiempirical re ation is developed that will estimate the total amount of surface material moving in eolian saltation, suspension, and surface traction. The estimated total mass movement of surface material per unit width time on the surfac...
متن کاملTheoretical considerations on colliding clumped winds
First attempts are made to derive astrophysical implications of the collision of clumped stellar winds from order of magnitude estimates and preliminary numerical simulations. Compared to colliding smooth winds, we find that the most significant differences occur in widely separated systems like WR 140. Clumped winds de-stabilize the wind-wind interaction zone of such systems. Highly compressed...
متن کاملOn the Predictability of Hub Height Winds
Wind energy is a major source of power in over 70 countries across the world, and the worldwide share of wind energy in electricity consumption is growing. The introduction of significant amounts of wind energy into power systems makes accurate wind forecasting a crucial element of modern electrical grids. These systems require forecasts with temporal scales of tens of minutes to a few days in ...
